I got the emissions fix in late August in California. A week later, the engine light came on and it was code P2457. Turned out it needed a new heater core, luckily covered by extended warranty. I drove it home from the shop and parked it, next morning the car would not start. Jumped it, thought it might be dead battery. It started once and I parked it later that day, now the car is dead again. Had it towed back to shop: either it's another strange coincidence with a car that has NEVER given me any troubles. Or, more likely, the emissions fix is causing cascading issues from faulty software not working correctly with the hardware on the car. I'm guessing the latter. DO THE BUYBACK IF YOU CAN. I've had nothing but headaches and time in shop since we got the fix.
